Description
Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!
In this episode, I sit down with coach Bruno Araujo Silva, a coach based in Belgium, to break down a real client case study and walk through Body Comp 101: How To Actually Improve Body Composition
We also dive into why biofeedback matters more than exact calorie numbers, how body fat percentage changes the strategy, and why most people stay stuck in endless bulk-and-cut cycles.
